View Full Version : "Close This Window" Button in Flash

I guess the subject line tells it all. I have Flash popups on a web page I'm working on. I suppose I could add the HTML below the SWF file in my HTML editor, but for aesthetic reasons I'd like to have a "Close This Window" button embedded in the Flash file which would, obviously, close the popup window.

Thanks,

Marc

Set the link in your flash movie to "javascript: closeWin()"... I believe the default should be set to "_self", but make sure that it is set to it anyways.

Then put the following code in the head tag

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function closeWin() {
window.close();
}
</script>

should work out ok for you... of course you can always change the function to whatever you want... it doesn't have to be closeWin
